A Whaley Bridge Co-op store is being haunted and the people who work there are now afraid to go down to the building’s cellar alone, staff say.

Assistant manager Leanne Williamson, 22, of New Mills, said: “I’d gone in the cellar to move some stuff when I just sensed that there was something behind me and when we looked at the photos you could see a ghostly figure in the picture.

“I don’t know what it is, but there is definitely something down there.”
